Yep, I went ahead after seeing the same gap on many of the pictures online and can confirm the same temperature drop you described. Brilliant!

Amazing result! I've had the same problem with my new 970 Evo Plus 2 TB getting very hot. Today I bought this product myself but one thing that puzzles me is how there are some space between the 970 and the thermal pad in the bottom of the cooler. That makes me wonder what the reason is to have the thermal pad there in the first place. When there's no contact between the backside of the SSD and the thermal pad. Did you notice the same thing @Nyt?
